The AquaGold treatment is a revolutionary micro-infusion facial therapy designed to rejuvenate your skin with a customized blend of serums. This minimally invasive procedure uses a patented micro-channeling device (one time use) that uses 24 karat golden plated micro-needles/channels to deliver a tailored mix of vitamins, hyaluronic acid, and other skin-enhancing ingredients directly into the skin’s deeper layers.
AquaGold helps improve skin texture, reduce fine lines and wrinkles, shrink pores, and enhance overall skin tone and hydration. The treatment is quick, virtually painless, and requires minimal if any downtime, making it an ideal choice for those seeking a radiant and youthful complexion.
How does it compare to other types of micro-needling and micro-botox?
AquaGold stands out from other micro-needling and micro-botox treatments due to its unique delivery system and benefits:
- Delivery Mechanism:
- AquaGold: Utilizes a patented micro-channeling device with 24-Karat gold-plated needles that are thinner than human hair. It delivers a customized blend of serums, including vitamins, hyaluronic acid, Botox and dermal fillers, directly into the skin.
- Traditional Microneedling: Involves using fine needles to create micro-injuries to the skin, which stimulates collagen production and improves skin texture. Serums are typically applied topically after the needling process.
- Microbotox :Uses a very fine needle to inject diluted Botox into the superficial layers of the skin to reduce pore size, decrease oil production, and smooth fine lines.
- Customization:
- AquaGold: Highly customizable, allowing for a tailored mix of ingredients to address specific skin concerns.
- Traditional Microneedling : Customization is limited to the application of topical serums post-needling.
- Microbotox: Primarily uses diluted Botox, focusing on reducing fine lines and controlling oil production.
- Benefits:
- AquaGold: Combines the benefits of microneedling with the added advantage of delivering active ingredients directly into the skin. It enhances skin hydration, texture, and overall tone while reducing fine lines and pores.
- Traditional Microneedling: Excellent for stimulating collagen production, improving skin texture, and reducing scars and stretch marks.
- MicroBotox: Effective for refining skin texture, minimizing pores , and controlling excess oil, with results focused on the superficial layers of the skin.
- Downtime:
- AquaGold: Minimal to no downtime, with most patients experiencing only mild redness that subsides quickly.
- Traditional Microneedling: Typically involves more noticeable redness and potential swelling, with a recovery period of a few days.
- Microbotox: Generally has minimal downtime, similar to AquaGold, but can vary depending on the extent of the treatment.
In summary, AquaGold offers a unique combination of benefits by integrating microneedling with the direct infusion of beneficial ingredients, providing comprehensive skin rejuvenation with minimal downtime. Traditional microneedling is ideal for collagen induction and texture improvement, while microbotox is specifically aimed at refining pores and controlling oil .
How is this different than having hyaluronic acid dermal fillers injected in my face?
While AquaGold uses the same high-quality FDA-Approved Hyaluronic Acid of Dermal Fillers we inject to plump lips, lift cheeks, and fill in deep lines, you shouldn’t expect to see the same kind of changes as you would with those applications. When these fillers are injected deeper into the tissues below the skin, they can restore volume. However, with AquaGold, we’re placing the hyaluronic acid in very small microdroplets through the skin of the entire face to smooth the actual skin layer. It’s the same product used in different ways to treat different concerns. If you want to restore or add volume in your face in addition to improving skin quality, then dermal filler injections can be performed.
How is this different from having botox injections?
Botox can be safely used to reat a variety of concerns including frown lines, horizontal forehead lines and crows feet. With AquaGold, we’re injecting Botox in very small quantities through out the face to improve fine lines, contract pores and decrease redness. It will not relax muscles to prevent wrinkles the way that Botox injected into the forehead and crow’s feet does. AquaGold is more of a rejuvenation technique than are traditional fillers or Botox. If you’re looking to relax wrinkles in addition to improving skin quality, Botox injections can be performed at the same time as AquaGold.
